Robert Emmett creates odd but familiar worlds and fills them with a bizarre cast of characters attempting the impossible.
He has spent most of his time around Chicago, making strange art and playing in loud experimental rock bands.
.
His stories usually come from the fringes of reality and carry a humorous and dreamlike feel. He cites Philip K Dick, Salvador Dali and David Lynch as influence and inspiration for his writings: fairy tales for the Internet age, bedtime stories for weird children.
.
He recently released his first book, a collection of short fiction and prose, called 'MEOWING ON THE ANSWERING MACHINE', and continues creating his unique brand of weirdness for this all-too-normal corner of reality.
He began creating at a very early age. Drawings and Poems gave way to Song-Writing and Short Stories, and then essays, Novels and the occasional Manifesto.
